Response of Highway Bridges to Nonlinear Temperature Distributions
The effects of nonlinear temperature distributions resulting from solar radiation on highway bridge decks are investigated. A finite-difference heat flow-model was developed and used to determine the distributions of temperatures to be expected in various highway bridge structures, and the general validity of the model was established by means of comparisons between measured and predicted temperature distributions in the Kishwaukee River Bridge, a large box girder structure. Weather data from 26 stations in the United States were studied in order to determine the limiting values of probable temperature differences over the depths of girders in different geographical regions. The bending moments induced in various continuous bridges were studied, with the aim of isolating the most critical cases. Recommendations about design are made, as are recommendations for additional study of some factors relating to the design process.
